31 - Don’t Talk About That Bitch.

After leaving Julian’s office, Ashley met up with Aleric in a quiet restaurant. It had been almost a week since Julian had been demoted to a mere department head. Ashley knew she needed to do something about it to win back Julian’s trust. No matter the cost, she was ready to do anything just to let Julian be by her side again.Aleric sat up in his chair and studied his sister’s face. “Look you stressed, sis,” he teased. “You should rest unless you will start to look twice your age.”Ashley narrowed her eyes at Aleric and shook her head. “You sure are relaxed. I mean, you finally got engaged to the girl of your dreams, how will you relate to me?”“That’s true though, but you are my sister. Of course, I am worried about you.”“Then do something about Sydney if you are that worried. Julian can't even stand my sight at the moment. I will lose him if this goes on.”Aleric scoffed. “What is it about that man that gets you so worked up? He is a nobody now. Why are you still bothered about

32 - I Did What I Have To Do

After the meeting, Sydney went straight to the prison where the woman who had poisoned her was locked up. The place seemed isolated and very quiet as Sydney walked into a room. She sat at a table and waited for the woman to join her.Not quite long, the door leading to the room rattled as it was opened and the woman walked in, her two hands in cuffs. Unlike the last time Sydney saw her, she looked more pale and skinny in the blue prison clothes she was wearing. The woman avoided meeting Sydney in the eyes and hesitantly sat opposite her. A prison guard stepped close and cuffed the woman’s hand to a hook under the table and stepped back. He stood guard at the door.The woman looked down at her cuffed hands, her shame seemed to be eating her whole. There was silence in the room for a long time before she summoned the courage to look at Sydney. She pressed her fingers in her palm. “I’m sorry,” she said, tears glinting in her eyes. She bit her lip to hold back a sob.Sydney watched her i

33 - It Is Ashley I Want.

After leaving the prison, Sydney checked on the woman's daughter in the orphanage. When she got to the orphanage, she didn't see the child playing in the playground with the other kids and asked about her whereabouts. It was then that she was informed that the girl had been rushed to the hospital that morning due to her sickness. She collected the hospital details and went there. When she got to the hospital, the girl had already been treated and was lying in bed. She had just had a major surgery and was still unconscious. Sydney watched the little girl through the hospital's transparent door and sighed. She didn’t understand why the little girl's situation tugged at her heart. Maybe it was because it reminded her of the child she had lost. A sharp ache throbbed through her chest. She rubbed her chest and blinked the tears that were clouding her eyes. Losing a child was very unbearable to her, she wouldn't wish it on even her own enemy. A doctor stopped by the girl’s ward and

34 - At The Top.

Jade removed her glasses from her face and leaned close to the counter. “Excuse me, I am here to see Miss Steinfeld," she said to the receptionist at the lobby. The receptionist looked up from her laptop and asked, “What is your name, ma’am?”“Jade.”There was silence as the receptionist looked through her laptop. After a long pause, she looked up. “Miss Steinfeld has no pending appointments with you,” she said. “Perhaps you should book an appointment for a later date. Please drop your number, and I will get back to you.”Jade frowned, getting irritated with the receptionist’s attitude. “What do you mean I can't see her now?” She questioned. “Do you know who I am to her? Tell her that I am here to see her!” Jade ordered, clenching her hands.She chuckled. At that point, it felt like Sydney was a sacred god or something. Since when does she need to book an appointment in order to meet up with Sydney?The receptionist must have noticed Jade's irritated mood. She asked quickly. “Can yo

35 - Alimony.

Jade shook her head, finding it hard to believe that Sydney could walk out of her. She scoffed and picked up her handbag. That bitch had really grown some nerve after her divorce with her brother. She gripped her bag and walked out of the conference room. Once she was outside the company building, she brought out her sunglasses amd wore it. She fanned her face as she waited for her chauffeur to pick her up.She looked up at the sky and groaned. Everything and everyone was annoying her. Why was it scorching so much?“What are you doing here?” A voice demanded.Jade jolted when she heard the voice and looked back. Her eyes widened when she saw her brother. She looked at the logo of the company building before looking back at him. “This isn’t your company,” Jade pointed out. “I should be the one asking you that question instead.”Julian shook his head and came up to his sister. “You went to see Sydney, didn’t you?”“What did you expect me to do?” Jade questioned back. “Wait here and

36 - Then, We Are Just Friends.

Sydney returned to her office, holding the evidence she had collected from the private investigator. As she walked towards her office, Secretary Ava approached her. “Ma’am, Aleric is here to see you. I told him to wait for you in your meeting room.”“Alright,” Sydney said. “I will be heading home soon. You can leave.”Secretary Ava nodded. “Alright, I will be leaving soon," she said and went to pick up her stuff. Sydney went to the meeting room and saw Aleric standing before a sculpture of a bird. He touched the feather of the bird, looking fascinated by its complexity.“You never strike me as one who loves birds," Sydney said, walking to him.Akeric smiled and dropped his hand from the feather of the bird. “Birds are actually lovely creatures. It is difficult not to like them.”Sydney looked at the sculpture and said, “You can take it with you if you want. To me, it is just one of the interior designs that was installed here. It has never held my interest.”Akeric shook his head and

37 - That I Don’t Treat You Like A Daughter?

Just as she had said, Sydney went home in her own car. Not long after her car parked in the parking lot, Aleric’s car joined hers. They left the parking lot together and walked into the house. They met Rafeal and his wife, Maya, sharing a tub of ice cream at the dining table. Rafeal perked up when he saw Aleric and Sydney. “Good timing,” he said. “We were just about to have this.” He gestured towards the tub of ice cream. “Are you two interested in joining us?” Sydney stopped to look at the ice cream. Without answering him, she continued walking and climbed up the stairs. Rafeal pouted as he watched Sydney walk away. He looked back at Aleric and smiled sheepishly. “You are joining, right?"Aleric waved his hand. “No, I’m tired.” He gestured to the dining table and added. “Enjoy.”With that, he climbed up the stairs, leaving Rafeal alone with his family. Rafeal picked up the tub of ice and read its label. He frowned. “Is there something wrong with the ice cream?” Maya leaned clos

38 - I Am Good At Hiding Evidence

“Whoa,” Ashley said as she shuffled some files in her hands. “I must have really underestimated that bitch. How did she get all these?”“She hired a private investigator to dig into the matter,” Aleric pointed out.He had met up with Ashley at one of his old warehouses. She sat on a couch, checking out the evidence Sydney had found on her. “You are lucky I found out about this on time. Imagine what would have happened if this had gotten to the authorities. You could have been jailed.”Ashley scoffed, dropping the files right next to her on the couch. “Why will I be jailed for something I didn’t do?” She questioned. “All this evidence she found is just papers. Anyone can forge a document.”“What if the hitman testified against you? Or do you consider that as just papers too?”“He would dare to do that. I had paid him in full for a job he didn't even complete.”“Don’t be delusional,” Aleric said. “Do you think he wouldn’t go against you in court if Sydney paid him triple what you gave

39 - A Man Who Spends More Time At Work Than At Home.

It was late in the night when Jade arrived home. Upon entering the living room, she removed her heels and wore a more comfortable pair of fancy slippers. One of the maids came to meet her and collected the stuff she was carrying. After seeing Sydney and getting frustrated with her brother over not wanting the alimony, she had gone shopping to relieve her stress. The maid juggled the multiple shopping bags in her hand, one of them nearly fell causing her to become irritated and alarmed,She narrowed her eyes at the maid and pointed at the shopping bags, “Everything in that bag costs more than you are worth so you better be careful in how you treat it,” she snapped.“I’m sorry, ma’am,” the maids said and beckoned to another maid walking by to assist her in carrying the bags. The other maids collected some of the bags and started walking towards the stairs leading to Jade’s bedroom. Jade slung her handbag over her shoulder and walked behind them. She heard laughter coming from her daugh

40 - The Diamond Necklace.

After Quinn left, Jade stopped by her daughter’s room to check if she was asleep. When she noticed she was already sleeping, she left the room and went to her bedroom. The maids had arranged everything she had brought from shopping on her dressing table. Feeling pleased with how enormous the things she brought were, she went to the table and started opening each parcel box one after the other. She was still admiring the things she had got when the bedroom door opened and her husband walked inside, looking tired. She dropped the designer scarf she was holding and looked at him. “You are late,” she pointed out. Arthur usually gets back home around nine to ten at night, but the time was eleven and he was just coming home. Arthur raised the bag in his hand. “I stopped by a kid store to get something for Iris.” Jade looked at the bag and frowned. “You only got something for Iris?” She asked, looking displeased. “Yes,” he said and arched his brow. “Was there something you wanted me to
